Snake Mantid

Kongobatha diademata

A Snake mantis. I think it's a juvenile because of the semi transparent colouring and lack of wings. A cool little guy. He was only about 3cm long.

I'm not certain, but the ID that I've given might be correct. IF anyone has a better suggestion, feel free to override mine! Nice photos, though! :)
